The transaction itself wasn't wrong, it was just unacceptable.

Just as humans define those who are detrimental to them as bad people and those who are beneficial to them as good people.

Karen couldn't tell whether it was right or wrong.

If she completely destroys the experiment, wouldn't that bring even more suffering to more people?

Koka understood one thing: that experiment was not a long-term experiment and would eventually come to an end.

Grace, too, has its time.

Human experimentation

If you haven't seen the cruel and bloody side, how can you make up your mind to deal with it?

"But one thing I'm sure of is that we must take that black box with us."

Karen took a deep breath. If she couldn't make up her mind to do something, then taking the first step would only lead to hesitation and indecisiveness along the way.

In the end, it ended in failure.

“I remember Su Xin once talked to that guy called System. The Twelfth Herrscher, Akane, who survived from the pre-Black Box civilization, was also a warrior from the pre-Black Box civilization. So there must be a way to permanently solve the Black Box problem.”

"First, retrieve the black box, then go to Shenzhou to find the Crimson Kite Immortal."

Karen paused slightly; she didn't want to see the Crimson Kite Immortal right now.

I don't know why, but seeing the Crimson Iris Immortal made me furious, and I wanted to fight her.

"No, now is not the time to vent my emotions, I have to hurry up."

Kallen is unable to make up her mind about dealing with the Otto experiment, but she will not hesitate when it comes to dealing with the Herrscher.

Because Su Xin is genuine.

Otto was completely unaware that Karen knew the true identity of the black box. He placed the black box in a hidden place in the laboratory, packed his things, and prepared to head to China.

If you were to travel by horse-drawn carriage like that, it would probably take several years.

By then, the Crimson Kite Immortal will likely have already recovered from his weakened state, and with the Void Treasury present, there will be no need to worry about speed.

The round trip took more than ten days. The experiment continued as usual. It didn't matter that it was interrupted by Karen. We could just start over when we got back.

In any case, the time extracted earlier was applied to the Herrscher of Erosion's time seal at the moment of extraction, so there will be no loss.

As long as there are children, as long as there is demand, there will always be test subjects. Kallen cannot stop this; her struggle is futile, and the world remains dark.

Moreover, Karen is probably quite shaken now, and her ideological work on the test subjects can be quite thorough. If it were Karen, she would definitely ask those children how they felt.

"Like" and similar phrases, you can prepare a large number of script lines that are enough to shake Karen's stance, and she won't be able to recover for a while.

In the best-case scenario, even after bringing the Crimson Iris Immortal back from Shenzhou, Kallen would still waver, or even give up resisting altogether.

In the worst-case scenario, Kallen would simply destroy the laboratory, and all that would be needed upon her return is to rebuild it.

Otto can accept either outcome. Once the Crimson Kite is brought back, there's no need to worry about Kallen affecting the experiment's progress.

To be on the safe side, Otto did one thing: let fate decide.

Karen is just a hot-blooded idiot; without offering any advice, she'll be too busy with other matters to pay attention to the ambiguous time deprivation experiment.

The indulgences will not only keep Karen busy and preoccupied.

It will plunge more people into suffering and increase the willingness of test subjects to participate.

Otto is not a kind person; his behavior is based on the logic that he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. His so-called kindness is, on the other hand, merely a delaying step for Karen to rebel.

"Alright, Void Treasury, let's go to the beach later and simulate a yacht. Then we'll head to Shenzhou immediately to recruit the Crimson Kite Immortal under our command."

Void Treasury: Aren't you afraid that white-haired creature will mess up the lab?

"Some test equipment that can be replaced at any time is insignificant."

Otto stuffed everything into the subspace and then exited the laboratory through another underground passage.

This led Karen to mistakenly believe that she might be hesitant to act rashly in the laboratory and waste more time.

Upon arriving at the coast, Otto lingered, every minute and second feeling incredibly urgent.

Mimicry.

Void Treasury: Is it a non-mimicry aircraft?

"Too fast. I don't want to cause trouble for the Crimson Kite Immortal before he has completely lost his memory and is in a weakened state."

Void Treasury: So how do you plan to deal with the Seven Disciples of Taixu? If you don't deal with them, you'll have a hard time getting close to Chiyuan, right?

"So you don't understand humans. Do you think the Seven Disciples of Taixu would act so decisively during the decisive battle on the Kipchak Steppe? Humans can never escape the subconscious influence of their environment."

"In my opinion, they are nothing more than a bunch of lackeys of the imperial court. Not all of them, but they are not much different. They just care about different things. As long as they care about reputation, recognition, and interests, they will have weaknesses."

"Since the imperial court was able to summon all seven disciples of Taixu with a single call, there is no need for us to have a direct confrontation."

"Dealing with mortals is our forte, isn't it? Heh heh."

Chapter 70 The Sole Survivor on the Moon

Otto smiled calmly, as if he had everything under control.

Void Treasury: Compared to you, I think I'm kinder; at least I still have a sliver of justice in my heart, though not much.

"Ha, who knows? The definition of kindness, the definition of justice, these ambiguous things are hidden in the void. You understand, things defined by humans have always been fickle. What humans create will also be destroyed by humans. So-called justice and kindness have never existed, have they?"

Otto sat on the Void Treasure Simulated Yacht, a cool sea breeze blowing in his face. The area illuminated by the lights was barely visible to the naked eye, but otherwise, it was pitch black all around.

On the vast ocean, without thinking of returning home, it seems as if one will be lost forever, unable to find one's course.

But Otto firmly believed that one day he would reach the other side of his ideal world, and at that time, he would be able to create an ideal world with his own hands.

The process may be long, incredibly long, and any determination may waver.

Anger can provide limited motivation, but lingering regret and remorse will not; they become an integral part of one's soul.

No sooner had Otto left than Karen arrived at the laboratory without a sound.

Every time the researchers saw Karen, they would consciously take a detour and then leave.

Anyway, since it's Lord Otto, and he won't resist, then he might as well leave. Losing a little money is no big deal.

"Phew, so self-aware? Let's get down to business first." Karen was flattered by this.

Karen went to the innermost laboratory and saw many children lying quietly in the experimental chambers, their eyes closed, their sleeping faces serene.

Upon seeing this, Kallen wavered slightly, but the next second she turned around, released her sword heart, and sensed the Honkai energy fluctuations.

The Destiny Stores a Black Box, so they have no idea what's sealed inside. The Herald of Corruption is something no civilization can solve. Driven by desire and greed, they will only invite ultimate destruction.

Karen wasn't sure if Otto knew, and perhaps Otto was also blinded by pain, unaware of how terrifying what was inside was.

If it is not sealed and restricted

It is necessary to eliminate this scourge first.

"Find it." Karen withdrew her sword, and the gale around her disappeared.

I walked quickly to a corner of the laboratory, paced around a few times, and discovered it was hollow.

Karen crouched down to look for the switch, but of course, as expected, Karen couldn't find it at all.

"Sword Opening Style - Mountain Collapse!" A heavy punch slammed into the ground, and suddenly a staircase leading to a deeper area appeared before him.

It was indeed simpler and more efficient than finding keys, cracking mechanisms, or using brute force.

Karen jumped down and discovered that there were strange cylindrical objects below that emitted white light, which didn't need to be lit by candles.

It was many times brighter than a torch, illuminating the entire basement.

“Brighter than fire, Otto has an invention that is unfair to the public? Will Bishop Nicholas not allow it? It’s possible that the nobles might want to squeeze more money out of the common people from these everyday items.”

Karen muttered to herself, these were just guesses, and there was no evidence to prove them.

During her naive period when she relied on subjective assumptions to make judgments, some things seemed the same on the surface, but when the truth was revealed, they were completely different from what appeared to be.

Karen continued walking down, thinking as she went.

"Otto was unaware that he possessed a sword heart, nor did he know that he had mastered part of the history of a previous civilization."

"That's why he felt he couldn't find him. Let me think, did he think I would cause a huge scene after he left and destroy all the lab equipment? If I did that, he really might not be able to find him."

Why did Otto put the black box in such a hidden place?

The surface laboratory is underground, the inner laboratory is even deeper underground, and the place where the black box is stored needs to be hidden. Is it necessary to have three layers of protection?

If it weren't for the fact that the Taixu Realm Sword Heart is extremely sensitive to Honkai energy, it would probably be impossible to find it.

Quickly, Kallen arrived at a massive door. Inside, a huge flow of Honkai energy was clearly visible—the final storage location of the black box.

A cold, mechanical voice came from the door: "Scanning detected as entry."

"Inch Force - Heaven-Splitting!!"

"Boom!"

The loud tearing sound made the entire basement tremble, the mechanical sounds stopped abruptly, and everyone froze in shock.

Karen flexed her right wrist and said speechlessly, "It's the fourth one already, it's not going to be next, is it?"

When Karen went inside, she didn't find any additional mechanisms. There was only a black box floating in the air, its buoyancy unclear. The surrounding walls were covered with strange patterns, as if golden blood was flowing down from the laboratory above and into the space.

Karen walked up to the black box, took a deep breath, and remembered that the last time she touched it, she was pulled into an inexplicable space and her consciousness was shattered.

No, it wouldn't happen again. Su Xin left behind the Void Sword Heart. He had previously dealt with the Herrscher of Corruption, so there was no reason why he couldn't handle it.

Whether a sword heart can break through a sword heart depends on the host's obsession and will.

Karen understands that her obsession is no longer Kaslana's legacy of fighting for the people for millennia, creating and saving the world she desires.

She would stop at nothing to transform the ugly world into the ideal one she envisions.

It doesn't matter if she's the world's worst child, she's still a bad child.

“Long time no see. This shouldn’t be. Let’s settle this once and for all, Herrscher of Corruption.” Kallen reached out and placed her hand on the black box.

In an instant, the soul is separated and arrives on a desolate and barren planet.

Karen hurriedly looked at her hands, trying to touch her body, only to find that there was no physical body. Was it a consciousness space?

When Kallen looked up, she thought she would see the demon-faced Shura formed from the purplish-black mist, but she didn't. There was no demon-faced Shura, nor any dangerous enemies.

Looking out, all that could be seen was a desolate wasteland and an endless, dark universe.

"Where?" Karen's eyes were filled with confusion. She had never been to a place like this before, nor had she ever heard of one.

In the distance ahead, there is a planet that looks like it's engulfed in flames, so bright and dazzling that it's hard to look directly at it.

Behind her was a blue planet, with a few scattered planets in all directions, or perhaps even further away, but Karen couldn't see them.

Besides, all the planets were shrouded in darkness. Karen looked down, trying to find a name called "

But she failed, in a place called "a place that can be reached".

"Where is Lidi? Where is the Herrscher of Corruption? Why didn't those big spheres fall down? And what about the corpses?"

Karen was immediately horrified. How could there be a corpse in such a desolate place?

Shouldn't we confront the Herald of Corruption?

While Karen was pondering, she discovered some strange monster items.

Losing the constraints of gravity, a broken pocket watch drifts aimlessly in the darkness, its upper right corner engraved with a "V" symbol, its hands now stopped.

The broken glass reflected human figures, vaguely showing eight distinct shapes.

Forward—

A coin, half destroyed, lies quietly in the gray sand, with a cat's paw pattern on it.

Its owner seems to always have good luck, always has.

Forward—

An old harmonica and a lifeless, cold body lean against a rock. The sunlight does not shine on him; he is alone and spends his days in the shadows.

Forward—

Countless golden swords were stuck in the shattered dust, almost none of them were intact, each one was more or less damaged.

Along with this, ashes, like burnt-out ashes, were scattered all over every part of the golden sword.
